Product Questions and Answers

Tempura paint can be mixed with watercolor paints and technically also with acrylic paints, but not with oil paints. However, it is not really advised to mix with acrylics due to many differences in binders, flexibility, color brilliance, and permanency.

I am happy with the products received. I also appreciate the e-mail stating you were out of a product. It would be very useful to receive another e-mail sent out when you do have the product in stock.
When I received the order the gallons of paint were dented. I'm not sure if it was the shipping company or the containers they were shipped in that failed, however when shipping and handling is paid it is expected that the products be in perfect condition when received. Overall I am happy with my expierence with MisterArt.com.

I really like the way this tempera covered the area I was painting. It holds its color very well too.

This is the best tempera paint I have ever used and I use a lot. Colors are great (I usually mix them), they don't rot and they are thick enought that paint pots don't spill when knocked over. They can be thinned to work like watercolors as well.

My adult students like these paints quite a bit. They said the texture is very workable and the colors mix well to make other colors on the color wheel.

Very good tempera. It can be mixed with anything and works fine.

Good product. It blends OK with other colors. Most unfurtunate it comes in a very bad designed plastic jar. Be prepare to paint your fingers every time you use it.

This tempera paint is an excellent student-quality product, although it does not work well for color-mixing, it is economical and gives good coverage.

The fluorescent paint is excellent. It is not completely opaque, so it was perfect for painting posters over drawn black outlines without obscuring the lines. It glows brightly under black light and mixes very well to create new colors. We made all the Scooby Doo colors: brown(for Scooby), turquoise(his collar), flesh tones(with added white), purple(for Daphne), ugly greens and browns(for monsters). Even mixing with standard non-fluorescent tempera only diminished the black light glow slightly.
